PoE2 Tenebrous Ring Crafting (0.3.0): The Ultimate Attribute Stacking Guide
Crafting the Ultimate Attribute Stacking Tenebrous Ring in 0.3.0
Welcome, Exile. For builds like the Spark poe2 Bloodmage, maximizing Life is crucial. Attributes like Strength and All Attributes are key sources of life, alongside the standard + to Maximum Life modifier. A perfectly crafted poe2 Tenebrous Ring can provide over 226 Maximum Life from attributes alone!
An item like this is incredibly powerful and expensive. This tenebrous-ring-crafting guide will show you the step-by-step process to create one, although it requires a significant investment and some luck.
Step 1: Preparing Your Materials
This is a high-budget craft requiring specific Omens and Orbs.
| Item | Amount | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Tenebrous Ring | 1+ | The ilvl 79+ crafting base. |
| Greater Exalted Orb | Multiple | Adds random modifiers. |
| Omen of Homogenising Exaltation | Multiple | Next Exalted Orb adds a mod of an existing type. |
| Omen of Dextral Exaltation | Multiple | Next Exalted Orb adds only suffix modifiers. |
| Omen of Greater Exaltation | Multiple | Next Exalted Orb adds two random modifiers. |
| Chaos Orb | Many | Rerolls modifiers on a rare item. |
| Orb of Annulment | Many | Removes a random modifier. |
| Fracturing Orb | 1+ | Fractures a random modifier. |
| Omen of Light | Multiple | Next Annulment Orb removes only a Desecrated mod. |
| Omen of Sinistral Necromancy | 1 | Next Desecration adds only a prefix. |
| Omen of the Blackblooded | 1 | Guarantees a Kurgal (Damage/Crit) Desecrated mod. |
| Omen of Dextral Necromancy | 1 | Next Desecration adds only a suffix. |
| Omen of the Sovereign | 1 | Guarantees an Ulaman (Life/Defence) Desecrated mod. |
| Preserved Collarbone | 2+ | Desecrates the ring. |
Step 2: The Crafting Process
This is a complex, multi-stage craft focused on securing attribute modifiers first.
1. Isolate the Base and Get T1 Attribute
Start with a Tenebrous Ring. Use Orbs of Annulment until it has only one modifier. Then, use Chaos Orbs until you hit your first T1 Attribute (e.g., + to Strength).
2. Add All T1 Attributes
Use the combo of Greater Exalted Orb + Omen of Homogenising Exaltation + Omen of Dextral Exaltation + Omen of Greater Exaltation. This will add two suffixes. Repeat this process, using Chaos Orbs and Annulment Orbs as needed, until you have all four desired T1 attribute suffixes: + Strength, + Dexterity, + Intelligence, and + to all Attributes. This step requires significant investment and luck.
3. Fracture a Non-Dex Attribute
- Use a
Fracturing Orb. You are hoping to fracture Strength, Intelligence, or All Attributes. If you fracture Dexterity, you must set this ring aside and start over on a new base. - If successful, use Orbs of Annulment to remove all other non-fractured modifiers.
- Use the
Greater Exalted Orb+Omen of Homogenising Exaltation+Omen of Dextral Exaltationcombo again to restore the missing attribute suffixes.
4. Add Spell Damage Prefix
Use the combo of Omen of Sinistral Necromancy + Preserved Collarbone + Omen of the Blackblooded. Reveal the Desecrated prefix. You are aiming for % increased Spell Damage while on Full Energy Shield.
5. Add Cast Speed Suffix
Use Perfect Exalted Orb + Omen of Homogenising Exaltation. Because the Spell Damage mod has the "Caster" tag, this is guaranteed to add a Caster-tagged suffix. If it's not T1 Cast Speed, use Omen of Light + Orb of Annulment to remove it and try again.
6. Add Life Recovery Suffix
Use the combo of Omen of Dextral Necromancy + Omen of the Sovereign + Preserved Collarbone. Reveal the hidden suffix. You are aiming for Recover #% of Maximum Life.
7. Add Maximum Life Prefix
Use Greater Exalted Orb + Omen of Homogenising Exaltation. Because the Life Recovery mod has the "Life" tag, this is guaranteed to add a Life-tagged prefix. Aim for T1 + to Maximum Life.
You have now crafted a mirror-tier attribute stacking ring!
Key Crafting Steps Explained
- What is the cost? This is an expensive craft, estimated at 30-50 Divine Orbs. However, a finished ring can sell for 100-120 Divines, offering significant profit potential, though it may take time to sell.
- What if you hit all T1 attributes except Dexterity in Step 2? If you are lucky enough to roll Strength, Intelligence, and All Attributes before hitting Dexterity, you can skip adding Dexterity. Proceed directly to Step 4 (Desecrate Prefix), and then use the Fracturing Orb. This saves currency and removes the risk of fracturing Dexterity.
Summary: Reaching the Peak of Attribute Stacking
Crafting this poe2 tenebrous ring is a high-investment, high-reward endeavor. It requires patience, a deep understanding of crafting mechanics, and a significant budget. However, the result is one of the most powerful items possible for a poe2 bloodmage or any build that benefits from massive attribute stacking.
While complex, this guide provides a clear path to potentially creating a mirror-worthy item. Good luck, Exile.
